The air cushion vehicle market is estimated to be valued at USD 127.22 Mn in 2024 and is expected to reach USD 174.72 Mn by 2031, growing at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 4.6% from 2024 to 2031.

Report Description:

The air cushion vehicle market refers to vehicles that use positive pressure to travel over land and sea. Also known as hovercrafts, they have multiple skirt attached to the sides that produce air pressure, making them hover above the ground or water surface without touching it. Benefits like the ability to travel over almost any terrain including marshy areas or sand, high speed, maneuverability, and amphibious capability have made them suitable for both commercial and military purposes like coastal patrol, search and rescue operations, and recreation. In recent years, advancements in engines, material science, and design have improved the fuel efficiency, payload capacity, and overall performance of air cushion vehicles. This is expected to further drive the demand in industrial as well as leisure applications going forward.

Market Dynamics:

The air cushion vehicle market is expected to grow at a steady rate over the next decade owing to various drivers such as increasing defense spending on coastal surveillance, growing demand for amphibious vessels for transportation, emergency response, and tourism. Military superpowers like the U.S., Russia, and China are investing in these vessels for missions in coastal regions. Meanwhile, companies are developing new designs with improved fuel efficiency and control systems to promote their adoption for commercial passenger transport. However, high manufacturing and operational costs pose a major challenge. Also, availability of alternative amphibious vehicles like air boats act as a restraint. Nevertheless, ongoing R&D towards developing electric and hybrid-electric air cushion vehicles offer lucrative opportunities in the coming years by addressing the issues of noise, emissions, and energy-efficiency.
